Oh holy fucking oolong what the hell are those purple cupid things infesting my screen?! I think you forgot to add the pixies=yes background music to complete it. I'm putting this in 'bugs' because it bugs me. *cries* oh I'm so lonely.

It is a bug. I have yet to see any little purple cupid things because I now get an error accessing the blue.

Well, Stan, you completely ignored me in the Gentleman Wooing Instructions thread, so you have only yourself to blame!

The little purple things scare me. But Stan & Pretty have been brought together by them, so they're good at their job.

A bit Geocities-esque isn't it? All it needs is a cheesy in-line midi.

Didn't mathowie do that last year also?

Seet merciful crap! That was just awful. The only thing that would make a post that freakin' long any worse would have been to make irritating little cupids fly all over my screen. Which he did.

Let's all agree to never do anything like that again.

i think the insane cupids go rather well with y2karl's rilke post. for a moment, i thought maybe they were part of the post.

By: yhbc

yhbc — Fri, 14 Feb 2003 11:47:51 -0800

Don't say that - when y2karl figures out how to add animated gifs to his posts, that's the day all our heads explode.

man you guys are uptight.

By: Pretty_Generic

Pretty_Generic — Fri, 14 Feb 2003 11:54:15 -0800

I'm uptight? I just offered to sacrifice my heterosexuality to comfort another.

By: WolfDaddy

WolfDaddy — Fri, 14 Feb 2003 11:57:00 -0800

PG, you'll be uptight untill your heterosexuality is sacrificed in fact, and not in possibility.

Just sayin'. Oh, and I want pictures. I think Stan's hot. ~giggles with girlish glee~

And I said I love you mathowie. I wasn't being snarky!!

I say "Gentleman" because except for Matt we're all scoundrels here, so there you go.

Every time you piss mathowie off, he kills a cherub. Are you all happy? Good. Hmph.

I think they're cute. I look forward to the holiday tricks here. I also think it's cute that Samsonov14 thought they were part of y2karl's post.

I think you should just come out and tell us that you love us, matt. Come on, give us some lovin'.

Or you could email us all individually. Your choice.

Okay, now I'm getting paranoid. What are you talking about? I don't see anything.

Dear Stan, if you are lonely, might I suggest lowercase letters and fewer exclamation points? Chicks dig guys with good grammar.

There are five little matt-cupids flying around at the top of this page. Go to the top of the page and refresh it. So cute! I captured me one.

By: mathowie

mathowie — Fri, 14 Feb 2003 13:28:36 -0800

timeistight, if you're using a modern browser, you should see the cupids look something like this here:

Yes that's my head. And yes, they will stay on this single thread forever.

By: yhbc

yhbc — Fri, 14 Feb 2003 13:28:45 -0800

Hee. Hee. That's great. I caught one too - I wonder if I'll get three wishes now, or a pot of gold?

By: yhbc

yhbc — Fri, 14 Feb 2003 13:30:15 -0800

Well, Matt trumped me as per usual.

By: timeistight

timeistight — Fri, 14 Feb 2003 13:30:32 -0800

Yeah, I saw them right after i posted. I guess I needed to refresh or something. Either that, or mathowie took mercy on me.

Matt, just so's you know, it wasn't the flying cupids that were breaking my browser. It was Karl's mouseovers. Still sometimes happens in the thread in question.

I'm just going to keep reloading and reloading this thread over and over to savor the purple love.

Hey, Matt, thanks for sharing them on this page... my place in the space-time-continuum sucks, and I miss everything, always. Glad I could still get my bit of purple love...

So many curmudgeons!

I think it's great. In that creepy, oh-my-god-it-burns way. But I like that.
